Handbook of Smoke Control Engineering
Handbook of Smoke Control Engineering is organized in the classic handbook format to help engineers and other professionals who need to get information about a topic quickly. The Table of Contents and the Index can be used so readers can go directly to their topic of interest. The handbook format has no introductory chapter, and the most fundamental material is in the first chapters and applied material is in later chapters. To help readers get information quickly, the chapters do not include derivations of equations. Unlike textbooks, some redundancy needed in handbooks so that the chapters can be relatively independent. This redundancy minimized, and in some places readers referred to another section or chapter for more information. This book includes all the information in my earlier smoke control books plus a number of other topics, and there are many example calculations.

This project would not have been possible without the support of ASHRAE. In addition to publishing books about smoke control, ASHRAE has funded a considerable body of smoke control research from the 1980s to the present time.
